These days when we say goodnight
We're lying facing our own side
Wondering if we're in the right bed.
We've gotten used to all the fighting
I walk out, you start crying
And neither one of us knows what we said.
Pre-Chorus
But all that's gonna change from right now on
I won't give up until we're back in love.
Can we put the petals back on the rose?
It's been you and me and this stem of thorns
From a long time of lows.
Sadness and frustration.
Sometimes that's how it goes.
But baby tonight
I start to put the petals back on the rose.
I haven't been the man I promised I'd be
To fight for us and not for me
If every choice I made pushed you away
And I don't wanna let you go
'Cause I didn't do all I know
To make you happy once again
And stay, stay, stay
Pre-Chorus
All that's gonna change from right now on
I won't give up until you're back in love.
Can we put the petals back on the rose?
It's been you and me and this stem of thorns
From a long time of lows.
Sadness and frustration.
Sometimes that's how it goes.
But baby tonight
I start to put the petals back on the rose.
I realize it takes more than just wanting it
With a little work
We don't have to quit
So baby please, please.
You helped me lift us out and put more
Petals back on the rose.
It's been you and me and this stem of thorns
From a long time of lows.
Sadness and frustration.
Sometimes that's how it goes.
But baby tonight
I start,
Yeah I'll win your heart
And I'll do my part
To put the petals back on the rose
